In addition to this, turning "Record Activity" on the privacy settings screen off should also inhibit additions to ~/.local/share/recently-used.xbel.
At this moment I work around the problem by
sudo chattr +i ~/.local/share/recently-used.xbel
which inhibits additions to the recently-used file.
You can change this back by
sudo chattr -i ~/.local/share/recently-used.xbel
so the next item will be added again.
This works but it is cumbersome. It would be nice if the privacy settings could take care of it. Of course, the chattr command has to be run by root which could be a problem for a simple on/off switch.
